Zuni Pueblo (Tribes of North America),
By Codi Hooee, Library Media Assistant (Zuni High School, Zuni, NM) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tribes of Native America - Zuni Pueblo: Native Peoples of the American Southwest (Hardcover)
As a member of the Zuni Tribe and a library paraprofessional, I was very disappointed with this book. The historical information is correct, but as far as the information on religion and culture is concerned, some of the information is incorrect. Captions for the photographs/drawings used in the book could have been better as far as dates of the photographs and proper identification of the subjects. Several of the captions are incorrect. What I found most offensive was the use of a photograph of our very sacred Sha'la'ko ceremony. Overall this book was poorly written, an example from the Customs section on page 25, "Among these are the June Rain Dance, held in August,..." The editors needed to be more thorough in researching the topic. I don't think this book deserves a "star." I would not recommend this book.
